Flying Colors

I passed my test!! Yay!! interesting facts about it...
  • I got 251 out of 300 (240 is passing, so not exactly flying colors... but its really a pass/no pass kinda deal, no one checks the scores)
  • I got perfect scores in "Cell Structures & Processes" (duh), and "Science Learning, Instruction & Assessment".
  • I got nearly perfect scores in "Diversity of Life" and "Heredity & Evolution of Life".
  • I bombed "Earth's History, Structure & Function" and "Life & Environmental Systems".
  • Medium-ish in Physics and Chemistry (surprising since I have a Chem minor...) But oh well! I passed!
In other much less exciting news, both of my dogs have staph skin infections, keep your finger crossed its not MRSA. It's going around... They don't really seem to know/care that they have it, other than the occasional scratchiness. It's mostly upsetting for me since we are in constant contact all the time, the big one loves sleeping on my pillow. They just got sad cold medicated baths in the back yard, so they are mad at me.

Today I was feeling so great about my job (this was pre-test scores)... then it all came crashing down with one bad cat. These cats are really getting on my last nerve. We had a really sweet one last week and I was starting to come around but no... I'm not good at dealing with them, I have a panic attack and can't do my job, not good.

That's pretty much it... I'm working EVERYDAY until Lindsay and Ricky's wedding. Lame.

Inspiration to Exhaustion


This weekend was John & Kim's wedding. So beautiful and fun, but also exhausting. The church ceremony was really well done, I really liked the minister, and it wasn't too churchy. It makes me want a little bit of churchyness, it was very well done. I got lots of great ideas and inspiration for our reception also. The save the date project is in full swing, ahead of schedule, too.

The puppies are being particularly annoying today, probably from having a boring weekend at home alone. They've been digging in the trash, barking at the window, wrestling and Rascal even tried to chew on my The Knot magazine. They're usually not this bad.

I took my test this morning. Not feeling good about it at all. So much physics and ecology, gross. I've lost all momentum for finding a job, I'm feeling so discouraged. It's almost July and still nothing. What am I going to do if I don't find a teaching job for this year? It's all way too stressful, so stressful I'm starting to shut down.

Time to clean my house... Ugh...

Cake Walk

Sometimes I make cakes... my skill set is so random...
